After instructing the headmaster and vice-headmaster, Lin Chen said, "Headmaster, can you do a favor?"
"Of course, just let know what you need help with," the headmaster replied.
Lin Chen said, "Lately, I've been targeted by an assassin. My current rank is Earth Rank Level 6, far beyond Level 5, so I want to register my strength and upgrade my rank. The assassin is Heaven Rank Level 3, so I'd like you both to accompany ."
"Oh, that's a small matter. No problem. The vice-headmaster and I will protect you in the shadows, so go ahead without worry."
Lin Chen left the training room, went back to his place to change clothes, and then walked out of the school.
As soon as he left school, a figure appeared behind him.
"You brat, you've got guts to leave school; you're asking for death," Yu Ze said with a bloodthirsty smile.
Lin Chen walked to a secluded alley; Yu Ze suddenly appeared before him.
"Kid, you've got guts to leave school; today, this place will be your grave."
Looking at Yu Ze, Lin Chen was not afraid and even showed a faint smile.
"Soone will indeed die here, but it won't be ; it will be you."
"What did you say?" Yu Ze's face changed after hearing Lin Chen's words.
At that mont, the headmaster and vice-headmaster appeared in the alley.
Seeing the two appear, the playful expression on Yu Ze's face turned into one of panic.
He never expected that the learning institution would value Lin Chen enough to have the headmaster and vice-headmaster personally protect him.
To know that the strength of either the headmaster or vice-headmaster could kill him instantly, let alone both appearing at the sa ti.
Seeing the situation going bad, Yu Ze turned to run, but the vice-headmaster's body had already appeared ghost-like before him.
The vice-headmaster's strength is level star; killing Yu Ze would be too easy.
"You dare harm a student from our institution? You deserve to die!"
After that, the vice-headmaster's palm emitted an energy beam that pierced through Yu Ze's heart.
Yu Ze fell to the ground, with unwillingness flashing in his eyes.
"Old friend, your strength has improved quite a bit," the headmaster laughed.
The vice-headmaster grinned, "Thanks to the training from Lin Chen, my tactical skills have indeed improved a lot."
Seeing the vice-headmaster kill the assassin targeting him, Lin Chen finally arrived at the place to verify his strength.
Lin Chen walked into a building covered in layers of aura.
As he entered, beams of golden light scanned his body, soon followed by a solemn voice from the room.
"After scanning, Lin Chen's strength is Earth Rank Level 5, now holding upper servant status."
"Congratulations, you've advanced by a level," the vice-headmaster smiled.
Lin Chen smiled, "I also have to thank you two for solving a major trouble for ."
The headmaster said, "This should be the second assassin. I bet the Blood Blade organization will send a third assassin. After the next mission failure, they'll give up, ensuring your safety."
"Another assassin?" Lin Chen's heart, which had just relaxed, grew tense again upon hearing the headmaster's words.
The headmaster suddenly said, "Lin Chen, our institution has an underground training base. Now that students are on vacation, you can enter and train."
"Can I?" Lin Chen felt a sense of joy hearing this.
He had long coveted the training center. Unexpectedly, the headmaster offered it to him this ti.
"According to the rules, it's forbidden. But rules are dead, people are alive. Besides, I hope you train quicker to guide the vice-headmaster and more."
Lin Chen nodded, and that night, moved his room to the training base.
"Haha, Lin Chen, that's great! We can finally be neighbors," Tang Waner said excitedly.
Lin Chen nodded, "Yeah, the conditions here are better than where I slept before."
Tang Waner suddenly frowned, "Lin Chen, did you lie to ?"
"Lie? Lie about what?" Lin Chen was puzzled.
"Hmph, you won't admit it. You claid you had several wives, but I've checked, you don't have any." Tang Waner said angrily.
Lin Chen shook his head grudgingly, "Why do you two girls insist on checking if I have a wife?"
"Of course, we have to check... We..." Tang Waner said, suddenly blushing.
Tang Fei laughed, "Alright, we'll discuss your wife matters later. Today, we must congratulate you for leveling up."
"What's so great about it? I'm still just a servant."
Lin Chen said to them, "Are you ready? Let's go train."
Lin Chen still looked forward to the underground base.
"Yes, sure, Lin Chen. I feel that you'll surpass soon."
Guided by Lin Chen, Xia Xing and Shangguan Wan'er improved their skills rapidly, reaching Earth Rank Level 8.
...
At Blood Blade headquarters, Enchantress looked at the incoming information with an unpleasant expression.
"Damn it, Yu Ze's mission failed too, and he was killed as well."
"Really? How could they let two assassins die, especially against a target of re Earth Rank strength?"
Others discussed amongst themselves.
"Now, I've heard Lin Chen's strength reached Earth Rank Level 6, and those who killed Yu Ze were the headmaster and vice-headmaster of the institution."
"What? Are they crazy, protecting a re servant with both headmaster and vice-headmaster?"
"If that's the case, we have no chance to kill Lin Chen," Enchantress sighed.
At this ti, a man in black lightly sipped a drink and said, "Actually, the matter can be resolved quite easily."
"How?" Enchantress asked with a rough expression.
The man in black smiled lightly, "Of course, there's a way. Since the mission originated from a student's request, we'll eliminate the source. Even if we can't kill Lin Chen, the matter won't leak, and we won't be impacted."
"We can't break the rules," another person said, frustrated.
Though rules can't be broken, we must first investigate the background.
If they value Lin Chen so much, there must be sothing hidden. We must have confidence before acting against him.
If those we send die again, it will hurt not only manpower but also our reputation. So, this ti we must ensure success; failure is not an option.
Others nodded one after the other, none expected an Earth Rank task to attract the Blood Blade assassin hall's deputy hall master, Blood Hand, personally.
